My first time seeing ganache done this way. Makes more sense since I get those chunks when I do it the traditional way. Beautiful cake and thanks for the info! Hope everyone is doing well 🙏
You're so welcome, Tameka! We are doing much better now...still some hospital visits here and there, but not as frequent as before. Thank you!
Hi Ashley! I just found your videos and I really love them! I’m here just to see you decorating and admire your beautiful cakes !
That chocolate looks so pretty.
I LOVE chocolate of all sorts
I loved it thank you for everything you show us
You’re so welcome, Veronica!
Looks so delish!
It was!! 😋🍰
Great video! Cute cameo of your lil one 👀🍰😁
It looks so delicious.
So yummy!
The easiest and simplest video of ganache ever watched
Beautiful and my favorite ganache filling love it
Me too!! Thank you so much :)
another great way of filling it would be getting a portion of the ganache for the filling and whipping it up to incorporate lots of air so that the filling in between the layers would be thicker in height but lighter in texture and flavour 😍 i will still add the chopped chocolates 💓
Love this❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is making me hungry!
Hehe 🥰😋💕
Thanks so much for the great tips! Continued positive healthy energies sent to you and your family😘
You are so welcome!! Thank you so much. My son is doing better now, but still some hospital visits here and there.
That baby boy looking up at the cake is so cute...and also ME lol
Hehehe yeah my son loves chocolate cake!!!
Thankfully
Literally had this pop up before searching for this exact video content ahead of making my daughter’s 5th birthday cake in a few days 🥰 wish me luck 🤞🏻😅
You’re going to rock it! 💕🥰🍰
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe thank you 🙏🏻
Hello great video! 🫶🏾💕💗After you melt the chocolate, do you put the heavy cream straight in?
Or do you have to wait for the heavy cream to be room temperature before adding it?
Tq for ur best tips.
You're so welcome, Manju!
thanks for this! do you have a ratio for white chocolate ganache? still 3:1 or would it be higher?
Oh that's why my covered cake choco ganache is not so yummy because i used low quality chocolate . Now i know . Thank you for the tips . I always get tips and very helpful info from you . Thank you so much you're helping small business bakers like me ~ Next time i gotta use high quality choco ~ ♡♡♡

Hi, thank you for the video, this amount ganache cove what size of a cake 🎂. Thank you
I use Guittard chips 64% and it's great
I need to learn a ganache but in detail x
A chocolate mousse would be lovely to add in between the layers.
Oh sooooo divine
Thanks so much for the video ..very helpfull. Is it possible to share the recepie of the vanilla sponge you used in this video..plsss. Thanks ❤️
You are so welcome!! I think I have it on my 'make ahead' smash cake video :)
Oki thanks so much ❤️
The link of the sponge cake you used hear please
Thank you for video. Is white chocolate the same amount?
It depends which type you use, but generally I find it’s the same!
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe thank you 😊
may i please have white chocolate ganache ratio please
How long do you leave the ganache to cool before you use it?
I think I only had to leave it for about 10 minutes!
Sorry to say, I used chocolate chips and it did work perfectly
Hi Asleigh I like your chocolate ganache. Can you give me the ratio of chocolate ganache for 9inches cake please Thanks in advance.
You could probably get away with the 600 grams of chocolate I used, but may want to increase by another 100
How many kg cake can this recipe frost??
I am a Iranian thankfully
I used up a whole bag of white candy melt n it never melted n started getting crust like so I stopped n added cream then it melted. Heard you mention don't use too much
So the reason that most likely happened was because your chocolate seized up from getting too hot. It's better to heat it in short spurts if you're doing it in the microwave. Also, I don't recommend using candy melts for ganache as it's technically not 'real chocolate'. I generally use candy melts for drips or dipping things :)
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe thank you for explaining. I didn't know n bought several packages... I thought they were better than the chocolate or chocolate chips...
What’s the percentage of the heavy wiping cream ? We in canada have 70% , 35% never 100%
Sorry 40% not 70
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💐👍
Is your cake is box cake ??
Crazy thing is I noticed that you switched it before you said anything…lol is your friend happy now?😃😂
I’m sure I’ll get the full review tomorrow when I see her 😂😂😂
Please what are the ingredients and recipe
how to make white ganache
Use white chocolate and I would up your ratio of chocolate 🥰
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe thank you 😊
First
🥳🥳🥳
Ha ha. I am a gourmet cookie baker. I am good at it, I know how to do it. I’ve been doing it all my life, but cakes look so easy I always try again and every time gets better but.. they still suck. So tell me why I want to try this 😂
You can do it! Is it anything specific that doesn't work out? Ganache is SUPER forgiving. Way more forgiving than buttercream in terms of covering a cake smoothly if that inspires you at all haha :)
You just used the part of the way I was taught.
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe please answer my question on you duo video.
@@rollingpinproductions7424 sorry which question?? 🥰
@@SweetDreamsBakeShoppe Even though I am classical trained baking and pastry, should I go and get "Masters in Wilton courses?" I prefer buttercream. I want to open a bakery on demand however here in IL you can not bake ot do anything in the food area. None! Indiana yes bug I am not moving over the state line. So I was like well, I will get a food truck then they can not say a damn thing. They do not have any guidelines for that either. Next option. Find a building that can be used as such. I found one but the realiter lied. The building sold two months ago.
Nothing smooth about that ganache 😂
